“Very nice LROK cask. However, fairly overpriced imho compared to other available LROKs.”

“This is a lovely rum with a touch of wood and fruits from nose to finish. Slightly alcoholic straight out of the bottle but after resting for 15 minutes it settles very well. I detect a hint of nuts and marzipan. Hard to find but very good quality.”

“Very light, filigree Hampden at first. Incredibly drinkable. Towards the end then heavier and fuller-bodied. Very light mouthfeel, alcohol also super integrated. By far the best LROK I have ever drunk. The price is unfortunately on the level of the other Birds.”
